Wow! Intro to one of the best villains of all time IMO! A classic page, indeed, by the late Mr. Ditko. Congrats!
Wonderful!!! A Ditko masterpiece!!!
perfect.
Every single panel is perfect and the whole page a real beauty to behold, congrats and thanks for sharing!
Always thought Gwen was a far more interesting character than MJ (they killed-off the wrong love-interest!). Her early appearances, and those thought-balloons telling the reader what she was thinking, always made the Peter Parker elements of ASM terrific reading. Then we have some great Kraven panels - with a nod of the old head to his former partner-in-crime, The Chameleon. Great page!
Ditko Spidey page!!! What more is there to say! Congratulations!
9-panel Ditko goodness. Perfect page. Then again, they're almost all perfect...
Something to love in every panel - panel 8 could have come from a Dr. Strange issue too - I regret never picking up one of these, congrats!
As a cover and splash guy, I had to learn to appreciate panel work. And although it makes me feel more than a bit foolish, I love seeing masterpieces like this that help remind me what an idiot I was for ignoring them when I started collecting. The sequential storytelling in each individual row of panels on this page is sheer brilliance.
I love these ASM character pages. Ditko was such a great cartoonist. His character designs, facial expressions and storytelling were without peer. Even with the dated clothing, to my eyes, his art remains modern and fresh. A true master.
Still gazing at this wonderful page; although Ditko probably did it dozens (100s?) of times, I can't imagine a better Petey portrait than panel 6. Ditko will always be the BEST Spider-Man artist!
I'll join the chorus here, Mark. What a page !!! It always seemed to me that Ditko made Gwen's hairpins to look like horns in when he introduced her, to make her a bit of a femme fatale in contrast to the saintly Betty Brant.
Baller.
Mark, glad CAF featured this page. I never had or read that issue. I had chills looking at those Gwen panels, knowing what is to come years later. I really enjoy the pacing and anticipation of the whole page, and of course the art is beautiful...
Amazing Page ! Congrats!
amazing!
What a page, and the cool part for me is seeing the hero and the villain in their private lives. We all know about Peter, but Kraven has a private life as well. Kraven wears a fedora! He looks like he could run a small pawn shop on 35th street. How cool is that?
Ditko gave Gwen some evil eyebrows! I agree with the Gwen as the femme fatale vs the softer, more feminine Betty Brant character.
